Hello everyone, new guy here, not really new to the game. LONG story short, I've decided to cease weight lifting and I've sold my home gym. The wear on my body and with some new babies in the house make me see family is so much more important. Instead I've been doing just push ups, situps, pull ups, and I bought a precor elliptical trainer. Now, here is my deal, I've always been a thick guy. I'm 5'8" 219lbs cold, but my BF% is now at 21%. I have always been able to just lift and burn off fat, never really did cardio much and ate to get big. Well, I find myself in my mid 30's with way too much fat, and I'm having a VERY hard time losing it. I know how to eat to gain muscle, but I realize eating to lose fat and maintain muscle is very hard for me and my body and mind and I never have had to think that way until now. I can't seem to get it going. I've gotten rid of all my old gear and am clean, no stims or any other supps. I get protein thru meals and 1 shake a day.
SO, after all that any feedback? I'm very confused about cardio for the long duration or for short blasts to lose fat, and early morning cardio is almost out of the question unless it's a short duration thing. I've checked a few other sites and guy just push their books or to take some gear. Gear won't make u lose fat so don't even suggest that please.
My goal is to get to 185 and I'll be happy. You'd think I would have all the answers by now but I guess not so thank you in advance for any helpful suggestions.
